      rds: tcp: correctly sequence cleanup on netns deletion. · 681648e6
      Sowmini Varadhan authored
      Commit 8edc3aff ("rds: tcp: Take explicit refcounts on struct net")
      introduces a regression in rds-tcp netns cleanup. The cleanup_net(),
      (and thus rds_tcp_dev_event notification) is only called from put_net()
      when all netns refcounts go to 0, but this cannot happen if the
      rds_connection itself is holding a c_net ref that it expects to
      release in rds_tcp_kill_sock.
      
      Instead, the rds_tcp_kill_sock callback should make sure to
      tear down state carefully, ensuring that the socket teardown
      is only done after all data-structures and workqs that depend
      on it are quiesced.
      
      The original motivation for commit 8edc3aff ("rds: tcp: Take explicit
      refcounts on struct net") was to resolve a race condition reported by
      syzkaller where workqs for tx/rx/connect were triggered after the
      namespace was deleted. Those worker threads should have been
      cancelled/flushed before socket tear-down and indeed,
      rds_conn_path_destroy() does try to sequence this by doing
           /* cancel cp_send_w */
           /* cancel cp_recv_w */
           /* flush cp_down_w */
           /* free data structures */
      Here the "flush cp_down_w" will trigger rds_conn_shutdown and thus
      invoke rds_tcp_conn_path_shutdown() to close the tcp socket, so that
      we ought to have satisfied the requirement that "socket-close is
      done after all other dependent state is quiesced". However,
      rds_conn_shutdown has a bug in that it *always* triggers the reconnect
      workq (and if connection is successful, we always restart tx/rx
      workqs so with the right timing, we risk the race conditions reported
      by syzkaller).
      
      Netns deletion is like module teardown- no need to restart a
      reconnect in this case. We can use the c_destroy_in_prog bit
      to avoid restarting the reconnect.

      rds: tcp: remove redundant function rds_tcp_conn_paths_destroy() · 2d746c93
      Sowmini Varadhan authored
      A side-effect of Commit c14b0366 ("rds: tcp: set linger to 1
      when unloading a rds-tcp") is that we always send a RST on the tcp
      connection for rds_conn_destroy(), so rds_tcp_conn_paths_destroy()
      is not needed any more and is removed in this patch.

      tipc: fall back to smaller MTU if allocation of local send skb fails · 4c94cc2d
      Jon Maloy authored
      When sending node local messages the code is using an 'mtu' of 66060
      bytes to avoid unnecessary fragmentation. During situations of low
      memory tipc_msg_build() may sometimes fail to allocate such large
      buffers, resulting in unnecessary send failures. This can easily be
      remedied by falling back to a smaller MTU, and then reassemble the
      buffer chain as if the message were arriving from a remote node.
      
      At the same time, we change the initial MTU setting of the broadcast
      link to a lower value, so that large messages always are fragmented
      into smaller buffers even when we run in single node mode. Apart from
      obtaining the same advantage as for the 'fallback' solution above, this
      turns out to give a significant performance improvement. This can
      probably be explained with the __pskb_copy() operation performed on the
      buffer for each recipient during reception. We found the optimal value
      for this, considering the most relevant skb pool, to be 3744 bytes.

      vsprintf: don't use 'restricted_pointer()' when not restricting · ef0010a3
      Linus Torvalds authored
      Instead, just fall back on the new '%p' behavior which hashes the
      pointer.
      
      Otherwise, '%pK' - that was intended to mark a pointer as restricted -
      just ends up leaking pointers that a normal '%p' wouldn't leak.  Which
      just make the whole thing pointless.
      
      I suspect we should actually get rid of '%pK' entirely, and make it just
      work as '%p' regardless, but this is the minimal obvious fix.  People
      who actually use 'kptr_restrict' should weigh in on which behavior they
      want.
